Hey All

After a couple of months on the forum - I thought it was about time I introduced myself and my ride. I previously owned a Supercharged Commodore as well as Holden SV8 so there was a few raised eye-brows when I pulled up in an Astra and I haven’t looked back since.

My name is Ben but everyone calls me Benny aka my numberplate

Car: MY08 Astra 6 Speed Turbo Diesel

Mods: Tuned by Willall Racing (Tunes European Cars here in Adelaide) fitted with a K & N Filter

Power: Dyno Sheet below

Future Mods: Tinting later on this week - thinking about a greenbox but not sure whether I can due to already having a custom tune?

Enjoy :)

Welcome mate, good to have yet another oiler on the forums, from the looks of that dyno graph you've not seen the best from your car yet! But it may act to give you even better performance if you box it. Essentially the box is after the ecu and just interrupts the signal, therefore it should work fine with your map, you just might have to adjust to a different map on the box than normally used.

With the greenbox on last year I got 118kw atw and 420nm

btw: any questions, just ask :thumbs:

Thanks mate - will ask plenty im sure. Looking at the Green box - was a bit hesitant at first but once I saw how easy it was to install im getting one for sure. :D
